This is and has been one of, if not, my favorite true crime podcasts. I hope you are well and hoping you return soon.

Great show!! Wanting more!!

Erica, I hope you are well. I miss new episodes of the show in my feed. Take care and I look forward to new episodes when you can get them to us.

Really miss having new content. Know you are working with Gone Cold but this is the OG and we miss your voice. Hope you are well.

I hope you are well, I miss your episodes. Please come back soon. This is one of if not my favorite true crime podcast

I keep checking to see when the podcast will return. I hope all is well and you are definitely missed by your crime audience.

She spent more time defending a murderer In her episode than representing the victim. Disgusting.

Hi, I noticed that there hasn’t been any episodes uploaded since June 21. I’ve been waiting for part two about Emily for a while, but my concern has grown about you Erica. Are you OK? I’m just concerned I had gotten used to listening to your episodes and grew Close to you almost like you are my homegirl, I hope all is well and if you are dealing with some sort of medical issue, I’m sending prayers of recovery. we miss you but you’re well-being is way more important. Please take care of yourself. Will be here waiting when you get back.

Hope your recovery is going well and I know everyone is looking forward to your return when you’re ready. 🥰

Well done

I have been thinking about you! I check my threads every day 🤓😁

Hope you are ok. I have been checking everyday to See if you are back.

Just discovered this podcast. Thorough, interesting information. Like the sound of the host's voice. Highly recommend.

Hello Erica. We hope all is well with you. We miss you. I check just about everyday to see if you’re back. Please take care. Please come back.

This is one of my all time favorite podcasts. I love Erica’s attention to detail, and her respect for the victims and their families. I also appreciate her nuanced take on corruption, botched investigations, and so forth when it’s relevant to the case she’s presenting. There are very few true crime podcasts that still show compassion to the victims, but Erica really does each episode! I hope Erica gets better quickly — and of course that she takes all the time she needs to recover. We’ll be respectfully waiting for the next drop and can’t wait until she’s back!

I look everyday to see if you’re back. We miss you! You are our favorite!

I hope that you and your family are okay.🙏❤️🙏

Hope you are ok. You achieved a real cliff hanger for sure. Come back!

Love the way the stories are told- one of the best.

Love the detailed podcast!! Really well done and well researched Great voice too!

I’ve been listening to this podcast for a long time because I enjoy the stories, not the delivery. Her voice truly sounds like she is reading from a piece of paper and she uses a lot of words incorrectly. Still waiting on Part 2 from a Part 1 that she promised would be forthcoming. I am unfollowing. Also agree on the number of ads.

So great! Such interesting stories! Great story-telling!! Where’d she go? Again? Darn… Is it bcuz of 🍎 stealing money out of the pockets of creators? As if they their billions in profits isn’t enough for them? Grifters and Highwaymen that’s all they’ve become!

Im missing her sweet voice..she tells the cases so well. I hope she’s alright😌

I love the way she presents the story, straight to the point. However, the audio is way less than to be desired. Wish it was better quality.

I absolutely love this show but I can’t help but notice it has FAR more advertisements than any other true crime podcast I’ve listened to. I usually skip over them, but when I’m in the shower or doing dishes it’s not as simple since my hands are too wet to skip forward.

Nicely done. Your way of presenting information to us listeners is spellbinding and I find that yours is my favorite crime podcast. I like how you keep it clean, and are respectful of victims and their families. Thanks to you and your researcher for all your hard work. Makes my daily chores go by faster as I listen.

Her stories feel as if she’s trying to sell us a house in the places where these murders happened. I don’t need a 30 min explanation on why I would want to live in a small town in Kentucky. Just get to the story

Listening to my first episode re a guy named Tex and I don’t feel like I’m getting a true crime story but spin by an unreliable narrator. Is this woman dating Tex or what? She also doesn’t understand criminal law based on her questioning of the felony murder conviction. Won’t be listening to more episodes because I prefer true crime pods that just tell the facts. I don’t know who this random woman is and why she thinks her “personal” opinions on cases are worthy of a podcast.

This podcast is absolutely amazing, and Erica’s story telling is so beautiful. However, the amount of ads completely ruins the show. For example the Carrie Lawson Part 1, I skipped three ad breaks within the first 29 minutes of the episode… It takes you completely out of the show. It ruins it the episode completely, and I started another podcast. I truly hate to say that, but it’s the reality. Also she will call you out and use your name in the podcast if you leave a negative review as she did in the Denise Amber Lee episode which I also didn’t like. Even if the person was wrong this is a podcast that thousands listen to, and I don’t agree with that.

I used to like this podcast it was a favorite but recently there has been a shift and we are much more focused on things like race, missing white woman syndrome, and feeling bad for the criminals instead of the victims. It’s sad but it’s a unsub situation.

Erica has such a way of weaving the tales she covers. She is so gifted at painting the picture of someone’s life in an honest yet compelling way. That’s what keeps this listener coming back!

70% ads, 30% content. They will literally cut off mid sentence for an ad read:/

I listen to a lot of podcasts, and have been listening to this one for several years. It, by far, has the most ads ever! Was not always this way. I used to like it quite a lot since I live in the south. For the past while, the ads have taken over. I can handle that episodes aren't always available consistently, but the excess ads are making it hard for me to stay devoted to this one.

I’ve been listening for a while, but the ads are excessive enough now to where I’m unfollowing. I listen to a bunch of true crime podcasts, and none of the others take this many breaks to have a ‘word from our sponsor’.

It’s absolutely appropriate that the podcast circuit, is at long last, fading away. This one is near the top for cringy, opinionated content, and I swear more ads than actual show. If you insist on listening make sure you have access to FF through because every episode has a minimum of FIVE ad breaks and at least 3 ads per block. That’s on the low end. Erica is constantly throwing in her opinions on things she has no business commenting on-and her opinions are often dead wrong on legality issues. Don’t bother with this one, so many better podcasts (for now) to listen to without their political bent inserted.

I absolutely love this podcast. Erica and her team really do their research and make sure the information they’re presenting is accurate. My only qualm is the amount of advertisements. I understand why they are in there so I try not to complain. Keep up the good work, Erica!

I like the show but there’s way too many ads. It seems like there’s 4 minutes of ads every 5 minutes. I always end up turning the podcast off because of this.

I enjoy listening to true crime but I’m really picky when looking for a podcast. If the voice ain’t it , I can’t listen to it. She keeps me engaged and the stories are interesting (although sad). My only complaint is the ads, they are more frequent than other podcasts I listen to. But I understand a girls gotta eat !

Well researched which I like and appreciate. A lot of true crime podcasters don’t even bother to do this but Erica does. She really cares about the victims. I do prefer the excellent scripts written just by Erica herself because it’s in tune with her spirit and personality. The collaborative script writing just isn’t her and loses some of the engaging qualities that define Erica’s writing. I can tell when the script was written wholly or partially by someone else. I also want to address a disgusting comment on here written Feb 27, 2024 by gardenfairy86. Talk about a racist, this commenter certainly is. Basically telling Erica Kelly that because she’s white she doesn’t have a right to share true crime cases about blacks. People like this dont even deserve a voice. Pay no attention to such ignorant comments.

I love this podcast!!!! Erica rocks! Update- I still love this podcast but there’s no rhyme or reason as to when she drops episodes and there’s always some lame excuse why she hasn’t. It’s annoying. Update to the update- over a month and no new episode or explanation why…

Monotone wannabe activist. “For those in the black community, I stand with you. I feel you… Not really though, I’m here sitting in a chair talking about it.”

When it comes to guilt and innocence in true crime stories I pretty much always have my mind made up. However, Erica’s research and following narrative has made me think, stop and consider, and occasionally left me wondering what was the right thing to see that justice was realized. So thanks! This has become my favorite tc podcast.

I used to love this podcast, but the ads have taken over! It feels like more ads than actual story. I listen to a lot of podcast and this one by far has the most ads.

Insane amount of ads with the podcast.

I love this podcast! I grew up in Nashville and enjoy Southern crime and history. Erica thoroughly researches each podcast and has the gift of weaving the story together in a coherent matter. In other words, her shows are easy to follow, even the complicated crime stories. My only negative comment is that I can’t stand background music on any show but I’m just like that. It’s not going to stop me from listening…I just try to tune it out.

I really don’t understand the high reviews for this podcast. She somehow manages to take really interesting cases and make them extremely boring with here monotone voice. I’m just going to assume the reviewers haven’t listened to good podcasts.

I’m southern to the core and LOVE this podcast! Anxiously await every new story!

Stories are well researched & written. I just want to here the story in an objective way! I don’t want to hear the podcaster’s views, feelings, religion, or politics thrown into the story. I usually listen to this podcast for a couple of months at a time. Then I can’t take it anymore, and I quit listening for a few months. If it were just a great researched story being told , I would listen consistently.

This is such a disappointing review to leave, because the quality of the content and the story telling is really good. But the number and length of ad breaks is wild and very obtrusive. Would be an easy five stars without the excessive ads.

I love the brutal honesty. They obviously do very in-depth investigations. I love hearing all sides.
